Pick • me! (The rebellious one) || VMin

10. Morning talk

"I don't want to sleep alone... I don't want to! I don't want toooooo!" Jimin's whining would wake up the entire neighborhood. Luckily, the apartment doesn't have the paper walls that seem to be the only ones available in all of Seoul, "I'm scared KOOKIE! TAE!"

"It's a threat that he gets drunk."

"It's the drug. He always has a bad reaction."

"Always?" Taehyung repeats with a tight smile and repeated blinks. Jungkook shrugs, embarrassed.

"It's not the first time this has happened to us. If you're present when it happens to me-"

"KOOOKIEEEE!" The shriek would make anyone think Jimin is dying.

"Just drag me, I get sleepy and I talk in my sleep." Jungkook shrugs with an embarrassed smile.

Taehyung drops his shoulders. He wishes he were Jimin. He still can't believe it's happened so many times that they both know how to behave when it happens. It's even ridiculous in his opinion. Jimin in the room looks like a mess. A crying one. Red face, hormones in chaos and crying non-stop, claiming that they don't love him and that's why they're not hugging him. Before Taehyung can make any comment (which could end up causing more crying), Jungkook is the one who speaks:

"Alright, I'm going to sleep with you, but only sleep. Only hugs. Do you understand?" Jimin pouts constantly, as if he can make his face more like a beaten and wet cat to cause pity as well as get what he wants, "and if you try to do anything else, I'm going to get very upset. I'm going to leave you!" Jungkook warns sternly. Jimin shows horror on his face. "Understood? Sleep. No touching or anything else. Just sleep. If you do, when we wake up we'll be together."

"Yeah! Goodgoodgoodgood!"

Taehyung feels overwhelmed that he can handle this situation. How do you deal with a drunk, drugged Omega? Apparently so. He's never experienced it and until now he thought it could only be solved by having sex. The tug on his arm makes him know that he must be in this combo.

"Two pretty Alphas for me." Jimin purrs, hugging Taehyung so he doesn't run away and Jungkook hugs the Omega from behind. Jungkook winks at Taehyung, laughing indiscreetly.

"Look on the bright side: you can say you slept with an Omega."

"I'm not going to...!"

"You're going to say it was a nice Omega, right? I'm going to say I slept with the sexiest Alphas in college." Jimin purrs, still with his goofy, drunken grin. Taehyung lets out all the air and is left with an angry baby face.

It's not like arguing is any use in normal life. Even less with Jimin lost among clouds and rainbows.

"My head hurts a lot..."

"And you're surprised? You drained the whole party and who knows what drug they gave you." Jimin rubs his temples.

Taehyung silently eats the breakfast he made himself and the other two. He felt a little embarrassed to stay here and do nothing. Considering that Jungkook even lends him clothes, let him shower, let him play with his doberman dog. Anyway, too many things and the least was the breakfast. It's not exactly good, but they haven't said anything about it. He'll take it as if it was decent.

"I didn't notice. Don't scold me." Jimin asks, dragging his hand to the glass of water and taking the pill Jungkook leaves on the table. The Alpha reluctantly sits down and holds back his grimace.

Taehyung cooks horribly.

How is it possible to make horribly bread...?

Taehyung somehow managed it.

"How could you possibly be surrounded by Alphas?"

"They didn't smell like Alphas!"

"In their defense, they really didn't," Taehyung says, raising his hand. Jungkook pops his lips out and his dog, Bam, squeals. He wants that bacon on the plate... "Women use those perfumes to hide their caste and not be bothered. Maybe they were bathed in it."

"The one who needs to bathe is him because if Namjoon-nim realizes that you stink of both of us, I'm sure I'll be in jail before I even know I was on trial." Jungkook replies and Jimin laughs.

"Of course not, my dad wouldn't take you to prison... But Tae could be! He called me a filthy whore!"

Jungkook spits out his food and looks in panic at Taehyung who shrugs with a nervous smile.

After eating breakfast and leaving Jimin for a good forty minutes to shower, they get ready to leave. Taehyung to his house, Jungkook to take Jimin to his house; the last one to shower is the occupant of the apartment. Taehyung caresses and plays with Bam, Jimin sits next to him on the floor, hair slicked back and loose clothing.

"Did you have fun?" Jimin asks with a smile. Taehyung nods.

"It was chaos."

"And did you like the kiss?"

Bam squeals and barks at him once, moving to go to Jimin. Taehyung pulls his ear and it hurt! Jimin laughs, shaking his head. "That didn't happen. Besides, I was." Jimin cuts off Taehyung's denial.

"Why does the idea of being with an Omega disgust you so much? It's not a crime... I wish I had the ease of an Alpha to be with people," Jimin admits, giving Bam a kiss on the muzzle and the dog leans against it, "you have a privilege and you don't use it. It's weird." He looks at him and Taehyung wrinkles his face.

"I don't like the idea of people touching me. It disgusts me." Jimin nods, it's a very valid justification. "I don't want to be... easy either. I don't like being like other Alphas: disgusting assholes who just stick it to everyone. It's-"

"You're a little conceited, huh? Wanting to be better than everyone else," Taehyung blushes slightly, "it's okay. There's nothing wrong with wanting to be your own person, what's wrong is criticizing those who do it healthily, like Jungkook!" he exclaims with a smile. "He has casual sex. It feels good. It relaxes the body, the hormones don't bother, heat doesn't hurt- Doesn't it hurt you to be in heat?"

"It's a fucking nightmare." Taehyung says it with a tone of absolute pain, treating it like a traumatic event. Jimin laughs, rocking on himself and Bam panting with his tongue out.

"You see? Thinking yourself superior to others only causes you pain."

"So, according to you, I should let strangers touch me."

"No. On the contrary: don't do it at all. It can be very bad! Unless you check all of the documents, they smell good... in the sense that they don't smell like drugs, excessive alcohol, or blood, that's a bad sign," Jimin informs, shaking his index finger. Taehyung notices for the first time how small Jimin's hands are. "What I mean is that you can find someone you trust to get through your heat and it won't hurt. Someone you trust a lot... Jungkook finds me! I find him. It's simple."

"I don't have any Omega friends to turn to." Taehyung murmurs. Jimin shrugs.

"They could be a beta."

"You really hang out with anything that moves."

"I like not to rule out other aspects: if they're violent, if they doesn't respect that I asked for distance, if they want to prevent me from being with others" he lists, swinging his head from side to side. "Ruling out by caste or gender is useless! Alpha women are" He throws a kiss. "Nobody knows how to touch you better than them. I assure you of that."

"Really?" Taehyung can't help but laugh.

"Really! Especially the ones who are more feminine. They have an energy that screams: if you give me the chance I'll be better than any man who's ever been in your life" Jimin relates enthusiastically, "and Shit! Sometimes I feel sorry that I like Alpha men more."

"Try to like women. You'll have more luck than with me."

"No~" Jimin wrinkles his nose, "I know I can handle you" He rests his head on Taehyung's shoulder who looks at him with a curious look. "And I know you're an Alpha I could be with more than once. You're so easy-going that I know it'll be a good experience," he purrs. "Plus, you love me too." He gives him a kiss on the cheek.

Taehyung doesn't bother to deny it. Why? If Jimin isn't going to pay attention to him.
